Chemical Equilibrium
• So far, we have seen chemical equations written as:
• H2O(g) + CO(g) H2(g) + CO2(g)
• Or stated as such that No Reaction occurs
• This may be an oversimplification, whereas…
• H2O(g) + CO(g) H2(g) + CO2(g)
• Is a more thorough description of what is happening in virtually every chemical reaction.
• But, what do these symbols mean?

Chemical Equilibrium
• The double arrow sign, , represents an equilibrium condition.
• Equilibrium is: The state where the concentrations of all reactants and products remain constant with time.
• On the molecular level, there is frantic activity. Equilibrium is not static, but is a highly dynamic situation.
• Equilibrium is : Macroscopically static • Microscopically dynamic

Concentrations reach constant levels where the rate of the forward reaction equals the rate of the reverse reaction.

Concept Check
Consider an equilibrium mixture in a closed vessel reacting according to the equation:
H2O(g) + CO(g) H2(g) + CO2(g)
You add more H2O(g) to the flask. How does the concentration of each chemical compare to its original concentration after equilibrium is reestablished? Justify your answer.

Conclusions About the Equilibrium Expression
• Equilibrium expression for a reaction is the reciprocal of that for the reaction written in reverse.
• When balanced equation for a reaction is multiplied by a factor of n, the equilibrium expression for the new reaction is the original expression raised to the nth power; thus
Knew = (Koriginal)n.
• K values are usually written without units.

• K always has the same value at a given temperature regardless of the amounts of reactants or products that are present initially.
• For a reaction, at a given temperature, there are many equilibrium positions but only one value for K. Equilibrium position is a set of equilibrium
concentrations. K = [Products] [Reactants]

The Relationship Between K and Kp
Kp = K(RT)Δn
• Δn = sum of the coefficients of the gaseous products minus the sum of the coefficients of the gaseous reactants.
• R = 0.08206 L·atm/mol·K• T = temperature (in kelvin)

The Power of the 5 Step!
• Take a look at the AP reference sheet…• Even though you may only see an equation once,
or perhaps never, and you may think that you forget or never learned how to use the equation…..
• The 5 Step is the “HOW” of working with equations…
• Being more familiar is more comfortable, however, take comfort in the Power of the 5 Step!

Effects of Changes on the System
1. Concentration: The system will shift away from the added component. If a component is removed, the opposite effect occurs.
2. Temperature: K will change depending upon the temperature (endothermic – energy is a reactant; exothermic – energy is a product).

Effects of Changes on the System
3. Pressure:
a) The system will shift away from the added gaseous component. If a component is removed, the opposite effect occurs.
b) Addition of inert gas does not affect the equilibrium position.
c) Decreasing the volume shifts the equilibrium toward the side with fewer moles of gas.
